Heat Transfer Augmentation through Electric Fan Heater Using Computational Fluid Dynamics
Air flow through electric fan heater channel is governed by coupled, non-linear partial differential equations; these equations have to be solved within on irregular domain subject to various initial and boundary conditions. Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) replaces fluid flow equations by a set of algebraic equations, these algebraic equations can be solved using digital computers. Wall to a...
متن کاملHeat Transfer Study of Perforated Fin under Forced Convection
Fins are protrusions on a heat transfer surface to augment heat transfer rate from it. The increase in area exposed to convection in case of finned surfaces results in increased heat transfer rate. In this study heat transfer characteristics of a pin fin with perforation is numerically analyzed. A pin fin is fabricated and experiments are done under forced convection conditions. The experimenta...
متن کاملExperimental study of heat transfer and thermal performance with longitudinal fins of solar air heater
The thermal performance of a single pass solar air heater with five fins attached was investigated experimentally. Longitudinal fins were used inferior the absorber plate to increase the heat exchange and render the flow fluid in the channel uniform. The effect of mass flow rate of air on the outlet temperature, the heat transfer in the thickness of the solar collector, and the thermal efficien...
متن کاملAnalysis of Heat Transfer Augmentation and Flow Characteristics due to Rib Roughness of a Solar Air Heater
This paper presents the study of fluid flow and heat transfer in a plain rectangular duct of a solar air heater by using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). The effect of Reynolds number on heat transfer coefficient and friction factor was investigated. A commercial finite volume package ANSYS FLUENT 12.1 is used to analyze and visualize the nature of the flow across the duct of a solar air hea...
متن کاملNumerical study of fluid flow and heat transfer in a gas-tank water heater
Influence of a vent hood at the exit of exhaust flue gas and flue baffles in the firetube on the temperature and flow fields of a gas tank water heater, as well as thestructure and amount of heat transferred to the water tank has been studiednumerically using two-dimensional steady state finite element simulation.Observations show that without a vent hood, there is a downward gas flow in theflu...
